1908 S Bancroft St

Newbold, Philadelphia, PA 19145

Welcome to 1908. S. Bancroft Street- your perfect place to call home in the city where the current owners will miss being walkable to East Passsyunk and the abundance of shops and eateries that it offers! Tucked away on a one-way street is your cozy + charming, yet spacious brick front home, where you are greeted by a slate landing and stairs to your front door. Enter into the inviting living room with hardwood flooring, large front picture window, a tasteful gray paint color and offering a nice flow into the dining room with A-frame vault in the ceiling that provides character and aesthetic appeal. The spacious nook in this room adorned by a glass chandelier is currently being used as a beverage station but could also be a shelving nook or desk area. These features give the room dimension and add to the architectural appeal of the home. Recently installed custom made "floor to ceiling" shelving provide another aesthetic element to this space, and are a perfect place to house books and decor. A chic pendant chandelier and a mantle piece on the wall (optional inclusions) round out this room. Proceed to the kitchen where you will find white cabinets, classic subway tile, stainless steel appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and 5 burner stovetop, and an exit to your own private outdoor sanctuary for grilling, or enjoying a peaceful cup of coffee. There is a wall spice rack (optional inclusion), easy-to-clean flooring, a wall air-conditioning unit, and space for a bar-top style table. The owners installed a deck in 2020 for a much more "finished" feel- a great upgrade to this outdoor space! The second level offers two bedrooms, one being the main bedroom with a newer ceiling fan, spacious closet and recessed wall shelving. Two paneled doors, replacement closet doors and updated hardware is also found on this level. The old world charm of this early 1900's home is evident in the original hardwood flooring that you will find on the second level. A full tile bath with newer vanity, tile shower with listello accent, and recessed shelving for added storage is a modern and clean space. The basement was finished at one time, and the flooring that is currently there makes it a great clean space for a workout area! There is plenty of storage space, as well, and a laundry room with an included washer and dryer. Also found in this area is the Bradford White HW Heater. This home comes with Philips Hue (a brand of wirelessly controlled LED Lighting) lighting and SimpliSafe equipment if the new owner would like to continue these services. Located near south Philly gems such as Ultimo Coffee, South Philly Tap Room, Second District Brewing, Hardena and Rosario's, as well as nearby markets and gyms- just to name a few! Don't miss out on the opportunity to make this exceptional property your own!
